Cydia atricapitana ?

 Sorry about the washed out photo. Any help appreciated.

Thank you

  1. It is Cochylis rather than Cydia, Steve, but I presume that was a slip of the keyboard. Difficult to tell which species, though, as it is so washed out, but there seems to be a hint of yellowish on the palps which would point towards molliculana. Both atricapitana and molliculana are out and about at the moment so from that picture I don't think we can be sure which it is.

  2. Yes I've had some 'Cochylis' already. I think that one was fresh out of the bath!
